I felt like developing my first Live Writer plugin last night then I checked this page to see if someone requests any useful plug-in that I would like to spend my time developer. There were a few ideas about <pre> tag. I thought that it was a good idea to develop such a plugin to insert any tag snippet at anytime because I also need <code> and <pre> tags to share code parts on my blog.
I used an XML file as the data store so it might be a good sample of you seeing how to store settings data of your own plugin.
If you need to see how to develop a Live Writer plugin using C#, you can see its code on CodePlex: http://www.codeplex.com/InsertTagSnippet
If you just want to download and install the plugin, you can do that here: http://gallery.live.com/liveItemDetail.aspx?li=[...]
